Comes off 60-day IL
The Nationals reinstated Williams (elbow) from the 60-day injured list Wednesday.
Análisis
Williams started in each of his 60 appearances with Washington over the previous three seasons, but manager Blake Butera has already said that the veteran right-hander will return to the big club in a long-relief role after posting shaky results during his rehab assignment while working his way back from internal brace surgery, which he underwent July 17, 2025. While making stops at five different affiliates from June 28 through this past Friday, Williams compiled a 6.46 ERA, 1.63 WHIP and 18:4 K:BB in 15.1 innings.

Returning Wednesday
The Nationals are expected to reinstate Williams (elbow) from the 60-day injured list Wednesday, Danielle Allentuck of The Washington Post reports.
Análisis
Williams has been on the IL all season while on the mend from the internal brace procedure he underwent last July. He was cleared to begin a rehab assignment June 28 and has since given up 14 runs (11 earned) in 15.1 innings over six appearances while making stops at each of the Nationals' minor-league affiliates. With Williams failing to find consistent success against minor-leaguers and fellow starter Jake Irvin (shoulder) also closing in on a return from the IL, manager Blake Butera has already confirmed that Williams will move to the bullpen to work as a long reliever. It's unknown whether it will be a permanent move, though returning to the rotation will only become more difficult once Connelly Early (elbow) is cleared to make his Nationals debut.
